West Ham XI vs Manchester United: Starting lineup, confirmed team news and injury latest for today

Alphonse Areola starts in goal for West Ham against Manchester United today.

The game, however, comes too early for Michail Antonio.

Antonio has been sidelined since picking up a knee injury on international duty with Jamaica last month and while it was initially hoped he could return within three weeks, the forward is yet to join full training at Rush Green.

"Mick's improving," David Moyes said on Thursday. "He's on the grass. He's doing some running, so he's improving."

The Hammers host Manchester United in the Premier League this lunchtime, looking to immediately bounce back from Wednesday's 5-1 defeat to Liverpool in the quarter-final of the Carabao Cup.

Moyes made six changes to his side for that game but none of those brought into the side did much to press their case.
